8 Preparation for Use

8.1 CHECKS PRIOR TO USE

8.1.1 Service Condition
Visually inspect the TransAeris and FrictionLoc connectors before each use for a patient to
verify that there are no observable defects. Do not use the TransAeris and FrictionLoc connectors
if there are any observable defects. Verify that the TransAeris controls function each time
before connecting to a patient.
Caution: Before each use, evaluate the TransAeris for damage and observable defects. Do not
use the TransAeris if the case is cracked, the controls are not functioning, the display is not
working, or if the controls, displays, or connectors are broken.
